53 games, 12 and 6
sons those numbers next season will look more like this ...
45 games, 9 and 5 ... all for the low price of $10 million
Shaq can only win a championship with three teams (not considering the supreme powers that will be formed barring Lebron's Wade's and Bosh's decision)... Celtics, Spurs, and Lakers. Though I doubt he will rejoin Kobe and since he kinda sorta hates Pop the celtics seem like an enticing offer. He should also really consider the Hawks actually cause they have a good 1-4 they were just in need of some big bodies

crofl spurs
LMAO thinking spurs should be mentioned with Celtics and Lakers
LOL at Laker fans talking trash like the team weren't mysteriously awarded 21 FTs in the final quarter for a comeback "win".
Even if Shaq took the vet minimum and a 15 minutes per game role, he tends to exert his will on whatever team he's on. Really hope the Mavs pass on adding this fat piece of lard; It's not 2001.
sons if he signed with Dallas his press conference quote would be so cute ... "big daddy is here to win a ring for yall's white boy"
already too late, mavs are interested.
up to shaq now
you better hope he goes to boston lol
Once again, show me where the it says the Mavs offered him the MLE.
Only team I have found that has actually offered shaq the full MLE is ATL
According to Chris Broussard.

So ESPN.com's Bill Simmons and Chad Ford are co-hosting a lovely, little pre-draft chat Wednesday when the funny one (Simmons) drops this gem at the end:
"I have a tiny nugget for you - I have an impeccable source that swears Shaq's No. 1 choice this summer, hands down, is the Dallas Mavericks.
"Unfortunately for Shaq, Mark Cuban never overpays washed-up or never-was centers... oh, wait, he does that every summer. It's destiny!"
Shaq to the Mavs?
Well, if Dallas is going for oldest point guard-center combo in league history, why not? Shaquille O'Neal will turn 39 on March 6. Jason Kidd will turn 38 on March 23. Nothing wrong with that. The Mavs call it experience.
But, hold the printing order on those blue Shaq jerseys.
Yes, Mark Cuban and the Big Aristotle are buddies. But, Cuban has had chances in recent seasons to get The Diesel and he never put the pedal to the medal. Why now? Despite what Ross Perot Jr., might contend, Cuban is not so desperate as to need a sideshow to sell tickets and that's about all Shaq Fu can punch up these days.
Above all else is the fact that Shaq Daddy -- after 18 legendary seasons -- is now the Big Granddaddy. Cuban and Mavs vice president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson know this. Here's what they also know:
*The Mavs' stated goal with Kidd at the helm is to run, run, run. How did that work out for Phoenix with the Big Shaqtus in the middle? The Suns improved after the Big Agave left. The Big Cactus can't run the floor and he clogs offensive flow.
*Since Superman (Shaq, not Dwyane Wade -- or Dwight Howard for that matter) beat the Mavs with Miami in the 2006 Finals, he's played with MVPs Steve Nash in Phoenix and LeBron James in Cleveland. The Real Deal could make it a trifecta by playing with MVP Dirk Nowitzki, but the desired effect in the The Big Baryshnikov's last two stops hasn't materialized and there's no reason to believe that would change in Dallas.
*Fact is, Wilt Chamberneezy is the Allen Iverson of big men. He changes everything, on and off the floor. He demands touches and his off-court personality remains as dominant as his game once was. He was, is and will be the focal point, for better or worse.
*Plus, would coach Rick Carlisle start Dr. Shaq over Erick(a) Dampier?
Sorry, Big Galactus, you are loved, but if the Mavs are serious about re-tooling the roster to rocket to a new stratosphere, you and them are orbiting in different universes.
Yet, if somehow Shaqovic does suit up for the Mavs next season, then the owner is far more desperate than anyone -- except Junior, I suppose -- could have imagined.
It's time for The Big IPO to realize his stock has crashed and it's time to hang 'em up. And in five years he can call himself The Big HOF.
I saw several articles earlier in the morning when I made the thread
said boston and dallas had offered too, cant find it now though
all I can find now is that those 3 teams have all contacted Shaq to join their team., like this one http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/rumors/p...urn=nba,253888
but that one fails to mention the 2 year deal the Hawks already offered, and doesn't mention the offers from BOS and DAL
hope you guys find something
25 free throws in the last 20 minutes of the game, because mysteriously Boston began fouling like crazy--and the Lakers CLEANED up their game completely--never evened TOUCHED any of the Celtics for 20 minutes straight...
that would be asking a 38 year old fat man to crash the boards. Is it funny and strange that the so-called "most dominant man in basketball" never led the league in rebounds or blocked shots?
and what happened to "Win a Ring for the King?"
damn, he's failed Nash, LeBron and next on the list, Diggler.
I blame Mike Brown for being a ty horrible coach that should have been fired years ago for their playoff loss.
lol at Bostons FT% if Shaq joins Rondo.
lol butthurt
lol cant even show us which 4th quarter fouls wernt "really" fouls
